Google Compute Engine

Plugin-Pack Assets

Monitored Objects

The Plugin-Pack Google Compute Engine collects metrics for:

  • Cpu
  • Diskio
  • Network

Discovery rules

The Centreon Plugin-Pack Google Compute Engine includes a Host Discovery provider to automatically discover virtual machines for a given Google Cloud Project.

This provider is named Google Compute Engine:

Note that the key file must be deployed on the Poller(s) expected to discover GCP assets.

More information about the Host Discovery module is available in the Centreon documentation: Host Discovery

Collected Metrics

For all collected metrics, we can choose the aggregation: average, minimum, maximum and total.

Prerequisites

Google Cloud Configuration

Configure a service account key (download its private key as a JSON file) for which the following privileges have to be granted:

Google ScopeDescription
https://www.googleapis.com/auth/cloud-platformView and manage your data across Google Cloud Platform services

How to create a service account key: https://developers.google.com/identity/protocols/oauth2/service-account

Setup

Online IMP Licence & IT-100 Editions
Offline IMP License
  1. Install the Centreon Plugin on every Poller:
yum install centreon-plugin-Cloud-Gcp-Compute-ComputeEngine-Api
  1. On the Centreon Web interface in "Configuration > Plugin packs > Manager", install the Google Compute Engine Plugin-Pack
  1. Install the Centreon Plugin on every Poller:
yum install centreon-plugin-Cloud-Gcp-Compute-ComputeEngine-Api
  1. On the Centreon Central server, install the Centreon Plugin-Pack from the RPM:
yum install centreon-pack-cloud-gcp-compute-computeengine
  1. On the Centreon Web interface in "Configuration > Plugin packs > Manager", install the Google Compute Engine Plugin-Pack

Host configuration

  • Add a new Host and apply the Cloud-Gcp-Compute-ComputeEngine-custom Host Template

Once the template applied, some Macros have to be configured:

MandatoryNameDescription
XGCPKEYFILEPATHService account key json file
XGCPSCOPEENDPOINTGoogle Scope. Default: https://www.googleapis.com/auth/cloud-platform
XGCPDIMENSIONNAMEThe name of the dimension to filter on. Default: resource.labels.instance_id
XGCPDIMENSIONOPERATORDefine the type of filter match to use. Default: equals
XGCPDIMENSIONVALUEID of the instance you want to monitor.
PROXYURLConfigure proxy URL
GCPEXTRAOPTIONSAny extra option you may want to add to every command_line (eg. a --verbose flag)
DUMMYSTATUSHost state. Default is OK, do not modify it until you know what you are doing
DUMMYOUTPUTHost check output. Default is 'This is a dummy check'. Customize it with your own if needed

WARNING: Service account key file must be stored on Centreon Poller. centreon-engine user account must have read privileges on that file.

How to test the Plugin and what are the main options for?

Once the plugin installed, log into your Centreon Poller CLI using the centreon-engine user account and test the Plugin by running the following command:

/usr/lib/centreon/plugins/centreon_gcp_compute_computeengine_api.pl \
    --plugin=cloud::google::gcp::compute::computeengine::plugin \
    --mode=cpu \
    --key-file=/var/lib/centreon-engine/centreon-dev-6e5531fc9e82.json \
    --dimension-name='metric.labels.instance_name' \
    --dimension-operator='equals' \
    --dimension-value='instance-centreon1-drb5' \
    --aggregation='average' \
    --warning-utilization='90' \
    --critical-utilization='95' \
    --verbose

Expected command output is shown below:

OK: Instance 'instance-centreon1-drb5' aggregation 'average' metrics cpu utilization: 1.04 %, cpu reserved cores: 0.20 | 'instance-centreon1-drb5~average#computeengine.cpu.utilization.percentage'=1.04%;0:90;0:95;0;100 'instance-centreon1-drb5~average#computeengine.cpu.reserved_cores.count'=0.20;;;;
Checking 'instance-centreon1-drb5'
    aggregation 'average' metrics cpu utilization: 1.04 %, cpu reserved cores: 0.20

The command above monitors cpu usage of a Google Compute Engine instance (--plugin=cloud::google::gcp::compute::computeengine::plugin --mode=cpu) identified by the name instance-centreon1-drb5 (--dimension-name='metric.labels.instance_name' --dimension-operator='equals' --dimension-value='instance-centreon1-drb5').

This command would trigger a WARNING alarm if cpu utilization is more than 90% (--warning-utilization='90') and a CRITICAL alarm for more than 95% (--critical-utilization='95').

All the options as well as all the available thresholds can be displayed by adding the --help parameter to the command:

/usr/lib/centreon/plugins/centreon_gcp_compute_computeengine_api.pl \
    --plugin=cloud::google::gcp::compute::computeengine::plugin \
    --mode=cpu \
    --help

Why do I get the following result UNKNOWN: No metrics. Check your options or use --zeroed option to set 0 on undefined values ?

This command result means that Google Cloud does not have any value for the requested period.

This result can be overriden by adding the --zeroed option in the command. This will force a value of 0 when no metric has been collected and will prevent the UNKNOWN error message.
